Can someone explain to me why religion is such a huge debate in America right now? Here in Canada no one talks about religion. If someone is religious that's their business, and if someone isn't that's fine too, but it seems like everywhere on the internet Americans are having a huge blowout about religion. |
I'm not an American, but I guess it's a huge topic since religion affects people's lives even if they don't believe in it. Gay marriage, for instance, is a huge topic, abortions are mainly opposed by believers as far as I know and going by some youtube videos I have seen there are even some people arising who want the church to be connected to the government for some reason.

That is mainly the far right blowing those out of proportion. Most people (I hope) don't give a shit about gay marriage, abortion, etc. We are ahead of some countries in some areas of thought and very far behind in other areas. If you ask me it is because of the evangelical Christians. They are so self centered that they will pretty much attach themselves to any issue and declare their train of thought is right while every other is wrong. These are the same people that got booted out of Europe to live in USA away from persecution. They escaped Europe only to wreck havoc on the USA.
